Face

                 
To face the future is no small task.  The future is unknown, it is out of my control.

To face the past brings pain.  It hurts, it is also out of my control.

To face my fears is terrifying.

To face my depression, anxiety and pain is overwhelming.

But for the first time I can face myself.  I want to say I can face myself in the mirror, but that is only true about half of the time.  I can live with myself now.  I guess that is the facing that really matters.
